Cal. Penal Code § 1553 — Proceedings Against Fugitives From Justice is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
If the prisoner is admitted to bail, and fails to appear and surrender himself according to the conditions of his bond, the magistrate, by proper order, shall declare the bond forfeited and order his immediate arrest without warrant if he be within this State. Recovery may be had on such bond in the name of the people of the State as in the case of other bonds or undertakings given by a defendant in criminal proceedings.
